The Coloring Of Troops: they stand on the common neo-auburn ground.

M.N.: Of course they could, dear Sir Richard. But why would they consistently paint themselves into a corner, in the various ways and forms; during almost the whole past century, through the various systems of governments and the various economic systems?

Stupid they are not, and the unskilled they are not.

Maybe, there is the same Geopolitical Factor, so to speak, is present; namely the German – Russian – (Austrian) continental competition, and the traditional designs of the German Military Intelligence, the old Abwehr and the New (Post WW2) Abwehr? It is very possible that this not so invisible hand is present in many historical events of this tragic past century, up to this day. It is also possible, it seems to me, that this hand is present in the Salisbury (and Amesbury) Poisoning events.

The “Operation Novichok” is illustrated by the Postcard from Salisbury.

And all this is as the addition and as the superstructure above the regular and annoying Russian shenanigans.

I think, that this “German Hypothesis” puts (almost) everything into some logical perspective.

Best wishes, Dear Sir.

Speaking to Sky’s Sophy Ridge, the former MI6 boss claimed that although the Salisbury poisoning of former Russian military agent Sergei Skripal resulted in an “incompetent operation”, a future attack by the hands of Russia should not be underestimated.

Sir Richard argued Russian espionage will never stop and that Vladimir Putin‘s country will continue to be violent as embedded in its DNA.

He said: “Russian espionage, Soviet espionage, has never stopped.

“It’s deeply embedded in Russia’s DNA to use the capabilities that it has to disrupt our nations, to pursue their own national interest, to, as it were, reinforce Putin in power.

“The attack in the UK fits a historical pattern, Russia historically has always used assassination as weapon, it’s part of the Russian political DNA, it’s a rather terrible thing to say but it’s a violent country and they tend to kill each other.”

The warning came after it emerged that the identity of the second suspect in the Salisbury nerve agent attack would be revealed in the Houses of Parliament next week.

The Bellingcat investigative website is set to name the Russian GRU military intelligence officer at a meeting on Tuesday in a Commons committee room hosted by Tory MP Bob Seely.

The two suspects in the attempted poisoning of ex-Russian spy Sergei Skripal were originally named by the Government as Ruslan Boshirov and Alexander Petrov – although it was made clear that the names were aliases.

On Saturday, Sir Tony Brenton, who served as UK ambassador to Russia between 2004 to 2008, also warned that there was a “genuine danger” of the world falling into a world war crisis

Speaking to John Humphrys on Radio 4’s Today programme, Sir Tony warned that Russia could shut down the entire power system of Britain.

Russia has been accused of behaving like a “pariah state” after allegations the Kremlin tried to hack the UK Government and the international body that headed the Salisbury Novichok probe.

Dutch authorities said they thwarted a Russian attack on the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in The Hague, with assistance from UK intelligence.

Moscow has blasted the accusations as “another orchestrated act of propaganda” as part of an “anti-Russian campaign of spy mania”.

Sir Tony insisted that the Russian spying was not the most worrying aspect about Vladimir Putin’s approach to the West.

He said: “The espionage and covert propaganda side of this has been going on forever.

“We can express outrage but I suspect they will be enjoying our outrage and they will carry on with it, regardless.

“The bit that does matter and is genuinely dangerous are the Russian cyberattacks on infrastructure like the Ukranian power attack.

“There is a quiet war of that sort going on with the Russians taking a lead.

“The danger is that someone will do something that will escalate out of control, like close down a country’s entire power system.

“If that happens, we are into a major confrontation and we have no ways of controlling that.

“This is similar to how the threat of nuclear weapons played out.”

Security analysts say police are ­investigating links between critically ill Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and Christopher Steele, the British former spy who compiled an explosive dossier on US President Don­ald Trump.

The diplomatic relationship between Britain and Russia has nose­dived over the suspected daylight poisoning of Mr Skripal and his daughter Yulia in Salisbury, southern England, on Monday (AEDT).

But Mr Trump could be drawn into the chilling episode if Mr Skripal is linked to Mr Steele’s 2015 dossier, which detailed alleged collusion between Mr Trump and Russia.

Stephen CorbyFrank Lloyd Wright was asked to build a house opposite a waterfall, but that would have been too straightforward.

British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson warned that England could even pull out of the soccer World Cup to be hosted by Russia in June if it is confirmed that the Skripals were poisoned by Kremlin-backed associates.

Counter-terrorism police took command of the investigation yesterday amid fears the victims — who were fighting for their lives in hospital — may have been poisoned by a nerve agent. Tests have been conducted for substances including sarin gas and VZ, the chemical nerve agent used to kill Kim Jong-nam, the brother of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, at Kuala Lumpur airport.

Police are looking at the security footage to identify a blonde woman with a red bag, who was initially thought to be Yulia Skripal.

Anthony Glees, director of the Centre for Security and Intelligence Studies at the University of Buckingham, told The Telegraph: “What we know is that Steele was our man in Russia, that he was extremely good. We know that what MI6 does is gain intelligence from human agents. You put all these things together, it is clear that ­either directly or indirectly Sergei Skripal would have been known to Christopher Steele.’’

Mr Steele was in Moscow in the early 1990s when Mr Skripal was passing information to MI6.

He was the chief of the Russia desk in 2006 when he headed the investigation into the fatal poisoning of Russian informer Alexander Litvinenko in a Mayfair hotel. A British inquiry found his killing was probably sanctioned by the Kremlin and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Mr Steele left the agency just before the 2010 spy swap resulted in Mr Skripal and three others being taken to Britain in return for 10 US-based Russian spies.

“If it is the case that Christopher Steele produced a dossier on Trump that is authentic and ­accurate, as we believe it to be — its accuracy has not been seriously undermined — then anybody who feels that Trump was humiliated and dissed by an MI6 officer may feel that getting at one of his agents is justified,” Professor Glees said. “That could be the Russian security services.”

Mr Skripal, a former army intelligence colonel, had feared for his life since his wife and son had died within five years, due to cancer and liver issues, reports said. His daughter has criticised Mr Putin on social media.

Mr Johnson told parliament that if the Putin regime were behind the poisoning “we will have to have a serious conversation about our relationship with Russia” .

“It will be difficult to see how UK representation at the World Cup can go ahead in the normal way,” he said. “I say to governments around the world that no ­attempt to take innocent life on UK soil will go either unsanctioned or unpunished.”

Russian Foreign Ministry spokes­woman Maria Zakharova described the comments as words of “savagery”. The Russian embassy in London said the Foreign Secretary spoke as if the investigation was already over and Russia was found responsible. “Looks like the script of yet another anti-Russian campaign has been already written,” the statement said.

My respectful recommendation to Gen. Gerasimov and Gen. Korobov is to try to reach out to their colleagues and to discuss these issues frankly and openly, in their broad range and in all the possible depth. The similar respectful recommendation to their colleagues, Gen. Dunford and Gen. Ashley, is to have these discussions and to try to make them productive. GRU is often compared with CIA, although nominally its counterpart is DIA. These interventions have to be approved on the highest levels, of course.

This “ham-handedness”, the deliberate, demonstrative sloppiness, as if it were the invitation to be discovered, is the pervasive, constantly present, the distinguishing, the defining, the hallmark feature of ALL recent operations, including, very much so, the Operation Trump. This feature has to be addressed and investigated thoroughly, it might contain one of the main clues. It might indicate the possible set-up or the number of other explanations, which have to be explored.
